"Know what's really funny in Chronos Protocol? Salem's Hospitality."
So, turns out MCH / Salem's once you see the Runner's Grip via either a Trap, Hostile or Ethics depletes it really, really fast. Like, whoops I hit you with Neural EMP Click 3 you're dead fast. Like, no, you can't IHW fast. This is a pure gimmick kill deck that happens to have been way more successful than it has any right to be.
You need to get very good, very fast at remembering what you've seen previously, sometimes over multiple turns. I tend to say them in sequence to myself, then trash them in sequence. Always remember if they have 2x of a card, you don't do net damage to it, because you're planning on using your next click on Salem's to take that card away.
Good News / Bad News
Things it likes - People who build rigs. People who run a bit too much and forget Snare! is a thing that becomes much, much, worse if on your turn, you can remember what you saw from the CP effect on the Snare, then Salem's 3 more cards off them.
Things it doesn't like - Mass trashing that ploughs on in spite of Net Damage. People who trash Turtlebacks on sight. Yes, it has a rough time against Whizzard. Yes, he's popular. No, I'm not suggesting this is a Worlds contender.
Other things you might want to consider
Snatch & Grab to blow up certain key cards (Film Critic, for example) Whether there should be a 3rd MCH (I found it reliable enough without) Cortex Lock perenially goes in/put, but AI hate is fun.
"How does this deck score?" It scores 3/1's and 3/2's by making a sea of remotes they just don't want to check, and you're honestly not that bothered if they take them. It gives away the Fetal AI on purpose as net damage, they're just another Snare! functionally.
And you'll never score a TFP, don't even bother. Just cycle those things around Archives & R&D forever. This deck does not have a scoring plan.

For Whizzard, I'd run Cerebral Static. That'll keep 'em on their toes. I like this concept...it looks brutal, and at the same time, very raw. Let's get some discussion going, as well as some meaningful testing so that CP can rock like it should! :) |

I had the same idea with TM's when Salem was spoiled :) I would suggest an Hokusai Grid or 2 vs Eater decks ;) |

I don't like your 3/x though. 7 points in total is too low. What about an unforeseeable Junebug ? |

How to build a museum deck: -Start with a normal 49cards deck. -Add 3xmuseum and two pet cards. -Remove six pieces of ice and exchange them for turtlebacks and Hostile Infrastructure. -Exchange hedge funds for diversified portfolio. |
Now I haven't played this deck, so I don't know how it works, but if you are going for the kill in one turn with a boat-load of Bio-Ethics Association and Neural EMP and Salem's Hospitality, why not play a more "mind-games" variant with 3x Psychic Field instead of Hostile Infrastructure? If they hit a single one when you have a bunch of assets, they likely die anyway between Ethics and EMP. Then you don't get wrecked by Whizzard: Master Gamer because they aren't running your assets. Also, since you've then taken the most expensive card out of the deck, you don't need to run nearly as much economy. Then you can fit in nasty stuff like Shock! and Cerebral Cast and Genetics Pavilion and Chairman Hiro.
I also wonder whether Localized Product Line works here over Shipment from MirrorMorph. Maybe this is the one-turn kill mentality, but playing Neural EMP like it's a Mumbad City Hall/Salem's Hospitality combo sounds fun.
Or maybe at the moment I've been making that one Jinteki Biotech: Life Imagined deck and every time I see Hostile Infrastructure I want to replace it with Psychic Field.
